I think the overall service was nice, but the place was not. Especially the hotel restaurant had wonderful service. Hotel itself was old, well in need of some redoing. There was dust between the windows, like it was cleaned 2 years ago. Also the view to Stora Enso power plant isn't that great tbh :D

Erityisesti arvostan yhden hengen huonetta, jossa on yksi vuode. Huone oli viihtyisÀ ehkÀ juuri sen takia. Kahden vuoteen huone yhdelle on jotenkin loukkaavaa. Huone oli siisti, henkilökunta huumorintajuista.
